Deep below the Mojave Desert is liquid gold — trillions of gallons of water in an underground aquifer stretching hundreds of square miles on either side of Interstate 40. It’s been there for thousands of years, but only a tiny bit of it is actually tapped and harvested. Last year Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill 1137, which was first implemented in January and requires all oil and gas wells to be at least 3,200 feet away from homes, schools, hospitals, daycares, parks, detention facilities and businesses open to the public. District 80 Assembly member David Alvarez announced a new bill in Sacramento Monday, to repeal sections of the California Vehicle Code and make cruising legal in cities across the state.
